The New Colossus Festival 2025 Lineup has Over 160 Artists

The New Colossus Festival is back for its 2025 edition, taking over New York City’s Lower East Side from Tuesday, March 4, to Sunday, March 9, 2025. With its signature blend of emerging artists, industry panels, and international partnerships, this six-day celebration promises to be an unmissable event for music lovers and professionals. This year’s lineup includes Arlene’s Grocery, Baker Falls, Berlin, Bowery Electric, Drom, The Delancey, Hotel Chantelle, Nublu, Nublu Classic, Pianos, and Sour Mouse.

Since its founding in 2019 by music industry veterans Mike Bell, Lio Kanine, and Steven Matrick, The New Colossus Festival has become a crucial launchpad for emerging artists. It’s often the first stop in the U.S. for many international acts, showcasing the next wave of talent before they hit the big time. Past alumni, such as Baby Queen, CHAII, Penelope Isles, and over 750 others, have gone on to captivate audiences worldwide, making The New Colossus a treasure trove for discovering future stars.

 

This year’s festival continues the tradition, featuring performances across a dozen iconic Lower East Side venues, including Arlene’s Grocery, Bowery Electric, Pianos, and more. Each venue provides an intimate setting for fans to connect with artists on the cusp of global recognition.

The festival’s name is inspired by Emma Lazarus’s iconic sonnet on The Statue of Liberty and it underscores its mission to champion diversity, opportunity, and artistic freedom. Just as the poem welcomes newcomers to the U.S., The New Colossus Festival welcomes musical talent from all corners of the globe, offering them a platform to share their voices and connect with new audiences. Whether you’re a music enthusiast eager to discover your next favorite artist, an industry professional looking to expand your network, or simply someone who loves the vibrant energy of New York City’s Lower East Side, The New Colossus Festival has something for you.
